A career centre may offer a range of different services or interventions and these may range from self-help materials (e.g. books, information sources or access to ICT-based career support) to one-to-one support from a career counsellor.
It is also possible to envisage a virtual career centre – i.e. an online career portal – being considered as a particular type of career centre.
